Hera Hub Irvine, a coworking space for women, opened its doors mid-June in Orange County, CA.

According to the 2017 State of Women Report, commissioned by American Express, “as of January 2017, there are an estimated 11.6 million (11,615,600) women-owned businesses in the United States.” This report pulls data from 1997-2017, providing insight into the growth of women-owned businesses over the last twenty years.

With this rise, combined with the momentum of the Me Too movement there is continued evidence of the need for support networks and female-focused workspaces for the growing population of female-founders. The 6,000 square foot space located at 16480 Bake Parkway is close to popular Irvine Spectrum Center, and boasts a balance of dedicated private offices, meeting rooms, a large training room, and creative open coworking/event space.

Hera Hub membership means more than having access to a collaborative, serene, and productive coworking space… you also become part of a community of like-minded, ambitious women who are moving their dreams forward.

There are over 350 members in our California offices –Irvine, Sorrento Valley, Mission Valley, Carlsbad. Most memberships include access to all Hera Hub locations. To learn more about membership plans and pricing, please schedule a tour. California membership plans range in pricing per month. (varies by city)

Linda Talama, Founder of Hera Hub Irvine

Leading Hera Hub’s expansion into Orange County is Linda Talamo. Talamo has years of entrepreneurial and business management experience, which she has garnered from numerous industries. Along the way, she has flourished in a number of higher-level roles including Controller, VP of Operations, VP of Real Estate Management, Director of HR, Director of Business Administration, Director of Real Estate Services, Consultant, Chairman of Employee Development Task Force, and eventually savvy pioneer business owner.

Talamo spent nearly two decades as President and Founder of her own niche market HR company with locations throughout Southern California, Texas and Georgia. Talamo is excited to be launching a new Hera Hub in Irvine, Orange County, where she looks forward to helping other aspiring women connect, grow and cultivate their entrepreneurial dreams.

Talamo says, “I know firsthand, the roller coaster of doubt, determination, apprehension, and uncertainty that entrepreneurs encounter to get a new venture off the ground. With the added isolation, distraction, lower productivity, and motivation when working at home or coffee shops. To solve all of that, the Hera Hub model fosters connection, community, courage, and the wonderful phenomenon of synergy. All within a relaxed, but professional atmosphere designed and curated for collaboration, encouragement, growth, accountability, and celebration of the wins, the joy, and the delight as members accelerate and dreams take flight. I love that it is all of that and so much more!“

Hera Hub’s shared workspaces serve women across multiple industries, from biotech and high-tech, business operations, legal advisors, and tax professionals to artists, designers, educators, and creative experts. The spaces, which offer an open layout, lend to collaboration across industries. Weekly educational seminars, intensive workshops, and one-on-one mentoring also strengthen the business acumen and ties among members. While Hera Hub was designed by women, for women, it is open to all independent workers who value collaboration and community.

Hera Hub is a coworking space and business accelerator where entrepreneurial women can create and collaborate in a professional, productive, spa-like environment. The platform provides members with connections to other business experts, access to educational workshops, and visibility within the community, thus giving them the support they need to be prosperous. Hera Hub offers cost-effective monthly membership options that are suited for freelancers, independent consultants, entrepreneurs, nonprofits, and authors. The company was founded in San Diego, California in 2011. www.HeraHub.com
